Cap Leucate is the only cliff in the coastal area of the Occitanie region, between the mouth of the Rhône (Camargue) and the Côte Vermeille. Cap Leucate is mainly formed by Pliocene lacustrine limestones, which are more than 40 metres thick here.[1] These Pliocene limestones, which drop steeply into the Mediterranean at Cap Leucate (here in the broader landscape sense) (approximately 40 - 60 m), form a spectacular cliff that is unique in the Languedoc-Roussillon.
